Based on what I see, I am going to take a stab in the dark here. It looks
like you originally had an Ubuntu/Windows dual-boot setup, is this correct?
Then you tried for a tripple-boot setup of Ubuntu/WIndows/Debian, correct?
I'm going to assume yes here for the sake of explination. If that is the
case, then very likely, your Debain install used your windows partitions.
the 'file-s' command we suggested to you (thanks to Arno for catching my
typo) tastes every partition and prints the FS type as output, I do see an
MSDOS partition, you can try mounting that somewhere to look at it, but
there are no NTFS partitions listed, unless you installed Windows elsewhere
on a different drive, it doesn't exist here ... Are you still able to boot
into Ubuntu?
